Message from the Fire Chief Dear Resident, The ability to keep up with increasing demand for emergency services while staying within the annual budget continues to be a challenge. However, the Irving Fire Department (IFD) is fortunate to be surrounded with supportive residents, a hard-working city council and an attentive management staff for all city services. The IFD continues to be innovative, effective and efficient with the tax-payers dollars. Our members take great pride in their profession and strive to provide the best possible service each and every day to our local community. It is my pleasure to present to our residents the 2014-15 Annual Report.

Administrative Division Lead by Assistant Fire Chief Rusty Wilson Fire Prevention: Responsible for Fire and Life Safety Code enforcement, Fire Prevention Education and Investigation of fires. Comprised of 14 State of Texas Certified Inspectors/Investigators including the Fire Marshal, Assistant Fire Marshal and three Fire Prevention Lieutenants. The Fire Prevention Division digitized inspections by using ipads, saving the city more than $80,000 per year in staffing, filing and supplies. Future plans include teaching high school students the proper use of CPR which means that during their school career, Irving students will learn about the Fire Safety House in 3rd grade, how to use a fire extinguisher in 6th grade and CPR in 10th grade. They also are currently working on accepting fire permits electronically to add convenience for the contractor and save the city money in filing and storage. Electronic filing also will allow fire personnel to access plans from the field. Citizens Fire Academy: Residents get an opportunity to learn more about the IFD by participating in the Citizens Fire Academy which is offered twice a year. Through this program, residents can get hands-on experience of our fireman’s day-to-day job. We have had 26 classes graduated with more than 300 participants to date. After completion of this program, citizens can sign up to become Alumni members and help the department by volunteering at events and helping at fire scenes.

Specialty Teams Specialty teams have been created within the IFD to respond to special operation incidents such as a chemical spill, someone trapped in a trench or to a high-water rescue. These types of incidents require more specialized training, specialty rescue tools and specialty vehicles that are used at these incidents. Haz-Mat: Our hazardous materials response team consists of two in-service fire companies with two specialty support vehicles. Their primary function is to carry out tactical procedures needed to control or stabilize incidents involving hazardous materials. This team is assigned to Station 8 which has a Hazardous Materials Unit to respond in the event of a chemical spill or release. Swift-Water Rescue Team: Texas weather often causes high water conditions. The three lakes that are located in the city, the creeks, canals and the Trinity River provide firefighters with an opportunity to practice water rescue. The Swift-Water Rescue Team is a specially trained and equipped rescue team having the skills and tools necessary to make rescues in unusual situations dealing with water-type emergencies. This team is assigned to Station 1 which has a zodiac boat and trailer for swift-water responses as well as Boat 8 on Lake Carolyn. Technical Rescue: Irving’s firefighters have been trained in various types of technical rescues, such as high-angle rescue, trench rescue, heavy machinery rescue and vehicle extrication. This service provides rescue to victims trapped in hard to reach areas such as the bottom of holes, on building ledges, train trestles or window-washer platforms. The Technical Rescue Team is assigned to Station 6 which has a heavy rescue vehicle for technical rescue responses.

Operations Division Lead by Assistant Fire Chief Jack Taylor Specialty Programs Honor Guard: For more than 20 years, the IFD has been proud of all the members of its Honor Guard. As ambassadors to the Fire Service Family, the activities of the IFD Honor Guard include, but are not limited to, marching in parades, ceremonial services, memorial services, opening ceremonies for conferences and city events. As members of the North Texas Honor Guard Society, the guard has proudly represented the City of Irving and the IFD at numerous events, memorials and funerals across the Metroplex and Texas. The primary goal is to provide a memorable tribute to the families of fallen, active or retired firefighters, with a commitment to excellence in a respectful and military manner. Chaplain: Who is the Chaplain? Jimmie R. Duncan (aka -”JR”), has been the Chaplain since 1999 in addition to his normal duties as a driver assigned to Station 4, B-shift. Why do we have a Chaplain? • To meet emotional and spiritual needs of IFD members and families. • To prepare IFD through Critical Incident Stress Management (CISM) training for crisis events. • To conduct CISM interventions after traumatic events. • To promote the well-being of our members. • To enhance the overall image of IFD in the community. What does the Chaplain do? To assist IFD members and families in times of crisis and other important events. The Chaplain will: • Provide basic counseling. • Provide CISM assistance. • Act as IFD liaison to community. • Perform hospital visits for members and families. • Participate in community events. • Speak at churches and youth meetings. • Provide spiritual guidance when requested. • Be a listening ear and a caring friend. Certified Fitness Coordinators (CFC): Trained firefighters, certified to improve and maintain the overall health and fitness of all fire personnel to assure they are providing the highest level of service to the community. Currently 16 fire personnel serve as CFC’s for the IFD in addition to their normal assigned duties.

A computer-aided dispatch system was installed in 1994 to aid in the timely response to emergency situations. Four shifts staffed with one Lieutenant, two fire equipment operators (FEO/Drivers) and one firefighter per shift work a 24/72 schedule handling the 911 call center for the department. The four shifts are under the supervision of the Battalion Chief of the Communications Division.

Although commonly referred to as “Dispatchers,” the communications division personnel serve multiple functions including: 911 call taking, radio dispatching and monitoring, nonemergency call switchboard, database information, inventory control of all Fire Department hand-held portable radios and batteries, preparation and distribution of press releases for major incidents, operation of the city-wide emergency warning system, location tracking and movement coordination for the most efficient emergency response equipment. Calls responding to and calls for Mutual Aid requests are processed by dispatch. The members also are involved in communicating “pre-arrival” instructions to the callers providing assistance with CPR, childbirth, first aid, etc. prior to the arrival of the responding EMS response. While the Computer Aided Dispatch (CAD) prompts the closest response for equipment, the dispatchers monitor the location and status of all department equipment, traffic congestion and road construction to routinely make necessary assignment adjustments, ensuring a rapid response to the incidents in the City of Irving. The communications division received 40,323 total emergency calls and efficiently processed 24,949 medical emergency and Fire/Rescue calls. The average time required to process a call from the time it was received until a response was dispatched was 52 seconds. Information Technology: • Station training computers at four stations • Fire inspections now digitized • Automatic Vehicle Locator (AVL) added to Computer Aided Dispatch (CAD) • Geographical Information System (GIS) added to CAD • Working on making fire permits electronic

Community Partnerships MDA Fill-the-Boot: Every year Irving firefighters position themselves at the busiest intersections of Irving with their firefighter boots in hand to raise funds for their annual Muscular Dystrophy Association (MDA) Fill-the-Boot campaign. During this year’s annual Fill-the-Boot campaign, the IFD, Irving Professional Firefighters Association and Irving Citizen’s Fire Academy collected $87,084.26 to help those with muscular dystrophy thanks to the generosity of the Irving community. 100 percent of the money collected through the Fill-the-Boot campaign goes directly to the Muscular Dystrophy Association. Tip-a-Firefighter for Special Olympics: With the help of Cheddars Irving and the community, Irving firefighters collected donations for Special Olympics. The IFD is the only fire department, among many Police Departments, that collects money through this event. Every year with the help of the community, IFD is able to collect more than $2,000 in one day. School Supplies for Success: The IFD partners up with the Irving Mayor, Irving ISD, Irving Family YMCA and several local organizations every year to collect and distribute backpacks filled with supplies to children who otherwise would not be able to afford school supplies for the beginning of the school year. This year more than 4,000 stuffed backpacks were distributed to Irving’s neediest children. Blue Christmas: For more than 30 years, the IFD in partnership with the Police Department and the residents of Irving, have collected and delivered toys and food to underprivileged families in the City of Irving. This year food and toys were delivered to more than 400 families. Pancake Breakfast: Every year Irving Firefighters along with the help of our Citizens Fire Academy Alumni members and Plymouth Park Baptist Church, host a pancake breakfast with Santa & Sparky to help raise funds for Blue Christmas. This event, which takes place the second Saturday of December every year, brings in more than $2,000.

Dallas 9/11 Memorial Stair Climb: On Sept. 5, a total of 17 IFD members climbed 110 floors in full protective gear at the Renaissance Tower in Dallas. These members climbed in honor of our 343 fallen brothers and sisters who died in the line of duty at the World Trade Center Twin Towers on Sept.11, 2001.
Community Outreach Show and Tells, Station Tours: Nonprofit organizations and schools contact the IFD to have equipment come out to their events or sometimes want to come visit the fire stations to find out what firemen do. Irving fire apparatus and personnel performed 144 show and tells or station tours to 14,596 children/adults. Smoke Alarm Partnership with Red Cross: The IFD has partnered with Red Cross to provide and install smoke alarms in homes older than 1986 in Irving. The fire department will identify neighborhoods that need to be canvassed by Red Cross and then install the needed smoke alarms, provided by Red Cross. This partnership will address the need for residential smoke alarms in Irving and help reduce fire risks. Don’t Forget the Baby: During the summer months, when the Texas temperature increases, the IFD offers free window static clings to help residents remember not to leave a child or pet unattended in a vehicle. Since the launch of this program in 2010, more than 5,000 static clings have been distributed at Irving city events. Vial of L.I.F.E.: The Vial of L.I.F.E. — Lifesaving Information For Emergencies — is a program created for Irving residents ages 60 or older as a public service from the IFD to store important medical information for emergency medical personnel during a time of crisis. More than 1,500 Irving residents participate in this program. Irving Fire Cares Enough to Wear Pink: Irving firefighters, in conjunction with firefighters throughout the nation, have designed a unique pink fire department T-shirt worn most of the month of October to help raise awareness and funds for Baylor Irving Women’s Imaging Center and the Firefighter Cancer Support Network. Leadership Irving: Every year leaders of the business community come to the Fire Training Academy to learn more about what Irving firefighters do. They are taken through a 4-hour hands-on crash course on firefighting lead by Irving Fire Training Officers. Texas Special Olympics State Games: Every Memorial Day weekend, the IFD volunteer to staff the medical support team for the Texas Special Olympics State Games that take place at the campus of the University of Texas in Arlington.
